NEET Physics Properties of EM Waves MCQ Question
Imagine a diagram showing an electric dipole oscillating harmonically with a frequency . Which property of electromagnetic waves emitted by this dipole is directly proportional to the frequency of oscillation?

The wavelength of the waves.
The speed of the waves in vacuum.
The frequency of the waves.
The amplitude of the waves.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, an electric charge oscillating harmonically with frequency produces electromagnetic waves of the same frequency . Thus, the frequency of the emitted waves is directly proportional to the frequency of oscillation.
